Still one of the best Class A amps out there - the Pioneer M-22.

 

Makes a great room heater in the winter :D

 

Maybe I am biased because I have one, that has been rebuilt. Well worth checking out.

I heard a set of these once. WOW - not the most dynamic but certainly stellar presentation - Ohm F loudspeakers.

I have these Polk SDA-SRS 1.2 and have own them for 25 years or something.

 

I would do a total rebuild of the crossovers (they are a bear to do but it really makes the sound so much better). I would also make sure all the drivers are totally sealed on the cabinet as driver seals will dry out and leak.

Kenwood L-07M/L-09M monoblocks were an interesting design and one of the only DC designs at the time. A Pioneer M-22 is in front of the Kenwoods.
